Awake

"we aren't their cattle We're not being bred for slavery..." Thought trained to succeed From here on the pain begins We're maggots cast in a sea of struggle, bait for the big fish Crawl, forever crawling Faith holds no answers Ravenous - they greedily suck away your will to even argue A belief in something better Downtrodden, hopes still linger. faces bear the same shallow fear of Forgotten prosperity Powers change The promise of reward. declarations false and unjust Tame insecurity A dreamlike notion that life passes by Cushioning the blow of impending reality Aimlessness is flogging us - awake!!
